What types of permit fishing charters are common in Alabama?

Inshore fishing is the most popular type of fishing for permit in Alabama.

The most common fishing techniques in Alabama are trolling, live bait fishing, and light tackle fishing but drift fishing and bottom fishing are popular as well.

How much do Alabama permit fishing charters cost?

Prices for permit in Alabama can range anywhere from about $515 to $635, but the average price for a half day trip for permit in Alabama is $575.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

    100% recommend this charter! Captain is very knowledgable and has just as much fun as you do. You get to take home your fillets and enjoy your hard earned catch. We will be returning in the future.

    Tom made for a spectacular experience. We caught tons of fish. He is patient and kind. We had no children on the boat but I could see where he would be great with them. He’s in with a really cordial guide community who seem to help each other out. We rarely passed a boat that didn’t wave and give a “hi Tom”. Really cool experience. Will do over and over again.

    This was a complete blast! Tom really knows what he’s doing too. He was patient with us, and our ultra newbie grandson from Phoenix. He taught him how to catch mackerel and pompano. He went the extra mile to find the fish and show us how to land them. We highly recommend !

    Captain Tom was great! I took my 15 and 11 year old boys and we started catching fish as soon as we got set up! Great trip, great captain! We caught fish while boats around us were not! Captain Tom new where to be, what bait to use, and most importantly he put us right on the fish! When we come back the orange beach area we will be booking with him again!
